Chandler's dream of doing absolutely nothing in life has finally been accomplished. He won't be doing nothing much in prison.

So devastating for his brother to lose his parents in such a gruesome way at the hand of his own brother 😢

JUSTICE HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED. RIP BART AND KRISTA.

Defense could not find a single person to stand up for Chandlers character. What a sad,sad life he led.

I pray for these jurors to have peace in their minds from the atrocities they had to view in this horrible case.

So sad for this family. This judge and the prosecutors were just outstanding.

Mitchell lost his whole family. God. Absolutely horrific. I can’t even imagine how much this affects those who love Krista and Bart. My heart is with them all.

We don't get to watch things like this in England. The judge and prosecution have been impeccable 👌 in this trial. Rip to his mother and father and I hope his brother finds peace.

I loved Prosecutor Brown! He made the opening case intriguing and cringe-worthy from the beginning. Judge Hyland was also exemplary and praise worthy in the way he conducted court and how respectably he treated the jury.

Well done to the deputies, sheriffs, detectives, prosecutors, judge and medical examiner as well as all who testified. The justice system doesn’t always work as it should, but this was an incredible example of justice being served. It won’t bring Krista and Bart back, but they deserve the truth to be heard. Love to the family and may Krista and Bart be in a good place now. Prayers.

Hands down the absolute best prosecutor and judge I’ve seen in a long time

Poor Mitchell, he'll never get over this. I hope he has an extended support group who love him.

And even after all the torment, grieving, betrayal, etc. that Chandler has inflicted on the remaining members of his, and Cat's family, I'd still be willing to bet that if Bart and Krista were able to speak on their sons behalf, they'd still want mercy for their son. It seemed like (from EVERY person who described them) that they were truly "salt of the earth" people. Genuinely good. And they were quite literally ripped from this world just as they'd begun to enjoy their later years, or look forward to retirement, and spend time just relaxing, and watching their children begin their own lives. Unfortunately, they had no idea as to what monster lurked within their own son. The things he did to them both in murdering, and post mortem are simply unspeakable. They wouldn't have cared if he admitted that he didn't have the eduvation, job, future etc. that he lied about. I'd bet they'd have stuck by him, and worked it out. But his ego, and warped personality wouldn't let it go. My heart breaks for Mitch, Barts brother, Cat, her Mom & Cress, and the best friends of Krista and Bart that all have to suffer this senseless loss.

He was so so cold. Throughout the trial he showed zero emotion at the photos of his dismembered parents at the sound recordings of them nothing not a flicker in his eye. That is truly chilling

23 years old and his life is essentially over. I keep asking myself "What was he thinking?!?". This crime is crazy! Get yelled at by your parents!! Don't murder them!! Jeez!! Freaking nuts!! And thank you so much for your awesome coverage of this bizarre trial!!

I’m going to miss watching this judge. He encompasses everything I imagine a judge to be.

Of course. I wouldn't have expected another verdict. He should never be free. He is a monster.

This was one of the best prosecutions teams I have ever heard!!!! RIP to Mr and Mrs Halderson. May the Lord be with Chandlers brother. Love from 🇨🇦❤️❤️❤️

No emotion shown, sociopathic behavior! Cold dead eyes!

This whole case is tragic and cruel. He had good parents. His mother by all accounts was the most loving, doting and caring as they come. A prime example of loving unconditionally and I truly believe even if she knew or found out all of his lies she would have still stood by him, protected and loved him. It’s what mothers do. They didn’t deserve this. I can only hope it wasn’t painful and the last moments weren’t filled with fear, pain and asking why! RIP Halderson’s.

Unbeliveable, that he was even able to do that to his parents... sick!

James did a great job representing station 3000. He was very thorough everyday. Thank you. What a horrific situation.

Thank you all, Channel 3000 staff and moderators. You all are so real, authentic, and dedicated. You offer much appreciated relief from the plastic, narcissistic, and despicable standards on national, and most cable channel news.

so much circumstantial and physical evidence linking him to this crime. How he thought he would never be found out - is beyond me. Human bone in the fire place? Blood stains everywhere (and he explained it that his parents had massive nose bleeds all the time-come on- we are not idiots).

Sometimes the American Justice system gets it perfect. A spectacular judge, the meticulous and compelling prosecution, a defense that knew they were beat and the best they could do was to not prolong the inevitable and a jury that faced a difficult trial, having to see and hear things like that no human wants, and during a pandemic, and they still carried out their duty professionally and quickly.

I am not from this State or community but thank you Jaymes for covering this case . Professionalism from all the resources used in this case.

Congratulations to each and every official who worked so hard on this case to make sure to put this man away for hopefully the rest of his life. I send prayers to his family and his ex girlfriend and her family that they can find peace in their lives. God bless them all.

Just unbelievable that someone can do this after living a life of lies. The verdict was correct.

And to the prosecutors…if you read this…among the best prosecutions I’ve ever seen. And I’m a trial junkie. Job well and thoughtfully done. Bless you.

I feel so very sad for Krista and Bart's family members, but particularly Mitchell. His mother and father died at the hands of his only brother. I can't even begin to imagine what that feels like. Thanks to the Jury Members. No one knows what case they might be called for in advance, but this one held particularly horrific evidence. Thank you all for the service you did.

I think he never thought that he would be found guilty. He thought he could gaslight everyone like he was able to do his family for so long. The only reason he was able to that is that his parents loved him. Loved him like no other ever has or will. The jurors don't have that live therefore could not be gaslit. Nor could the police or prosecutors side.

Well Chandler, Mom & Dad can't help you with this one...

Very respectable judge!!!!!

Those prosecutors were amazing. I truly loved hearing their questions and arguments. They always asked every question I was thinking when they were questioning someone. Great job those two. Two of the best I’ve ever seen.

Just want to say a huge thank you to Channel 3000 for your superb coverage. Love how you posted whole days, so we as watchers always knew where we were. I've been watching from the UK and my son and his girlfriend have also become engrossed in this trial - largely due to your excellent channel. Thank you again.

Adios little fella. May God have Mercy on your soul. God bless all those broken by your selfish evil deeds.

Krista and Bart deserved a better son than him. All bc he was a lazy sack. Hope the other son is able to heal and have a peaceful rest of his life.

Never have I ever heard such an abominal case. I think the most nagging part is the fact that his parents were loving and caring. Yes the gruesome facts are very very disturbing; but he did this to very caring loving parents, who sounded to be wonderful people. Few trials have left me so unsettled as this. Well done to the Prosecution and jurors. May Bart and Krista finally rest in peace.

Defense did what they could, which was nearly nothing. Dude was powerfully guilty.

Absolutely insane. Just shows some people need no real motive to do the most horrific things.

Fascinating to follow this whole trial. Heavy heart for the family, but the right decision reached, I believe.

This judge has been wonderful. The evidence in this case was over whelming. No surprise about the verdict.

I can’t wrap my head around the defense attorney stating, in closing, “he is only guilty of a false police report”. Doesn’t that mean he knew they weren’t alive…proving he killed them?

This Judge sets a fine example for all to follow. Such a tragic case. Thankful the Monster will never be free to hurt anyone else. He's done enough damage! ChazzleDazzle.. Bye

May Krista and Bart RIP, may Mitchell be left to live is life without intrusion.

The Halderson spent 23 years giving Chandler a good life, this is how he repays them. Too bad Wisconsin doest have death penalty this case deserves it more than most. Prayers for the Halderson family and friends for strength. My deepest condolences for your loss.

I feel so bad for Mitchell… hopefully he and his wife can go forward and prosper.

2 hours the jury deliberated...Thank all of them for speaking for Krista and Bart 💓💓

Thank you to all investigators, the sheriff’s office, Chanel 3 3000, to the prosecutors and the judge all being professionals. Come on Wisconsin this guy should never have had any bail. This was a horrific crime Bart & Krista did not deserve this. Prayers to family and friends my heart goes out to you. Good bye Chandler what a waste.

You can't blame the defense team...they had Nothing to work with and if they tried it would have just make people more irritated.

Guilty as sin.....and for what? He is a selfish son, with a wicked heart. How they raised such a cold and selfish human being is beyond me.

The best judge I've ever seen for respecting all parties and not acting like they are god.

I would love for the judge to do the reading for audiobooks!!

I'm going to watch the interview of Chandler and police one more time. He literally showed No Emotion....No remorse during this interview. He REALLY thought he was going to LIE his way out of this!! The way he sat there.....but what I Really want to re-watch is the moment when the officer says "Listen....Listen.....this is your chance to start telling THE TRUTH!!!"

My heart breaks for Michell and the rest of those that love Bart and Krystal,vBart and Krysta are those kinda good people you love them not because they're family by blood but because you love them for who they are this will forever me an unexplainable tragedy.

Best presentation by Prosecutors, brilliant work by law enforcement, and brave testimonials by all. RIP Mr and Mrs Halderson. Peace for the family, friends, neighbours, co-workers. I Cannot even imagine their shock and horror at the unbelievable murders, of ones own parents who clearly loved their son. Thank you to the jurors.

The more I learn about this case, the more it breaks my heart. Makes me wanna go over to my parents and give them the biggest hug 😢

I just love Judge Hyland. He's a reflection of true class.

Sad, no matter how you see this situation. 🕊RIP, Bart and Krista🕊

And at sentencing the judge says... ""I have to (...) ensure that the only time Mr Halderson comes back into the community is to have the privilege of a burial he denied his parents" My respect to the judge.

Prayers for his Parents, Brother, and the Families of Krista, and Bart. 💔💔💔💔💔🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 RIP. he has No Heart, and No Soul. Excellent work by Prosecutor Brown!

Mad respect to attorney Mr. Brown

The judge in Chandler handler was great nice to everyone

Not a flicker of emotion shown . Such a seriously deranged wicked individual.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he applies for an appeal for ineffective assistance of counsel… he did it period… it’s just mind blowing that someone would murder their parents because they found out he wasn’t attending school 🤷‍♀️ this kid is done.

The parents must have had their hands full trying to get him to do anything. It’s such a sad situation.

People who do horrific deeds like this are not redeemable. They should NOT be allowed to waste tax payers money.

I don’t understand why he pleaded not guilty. Strangest case.

Wow I can't believe his Lawyer is texting as the verdict is being read.

RIP Bart and Krista... Prayers for everyone involved in this case from the PD, ME, State Crime Lab, Expert Witnesses, Neighbors and to all the families impacted by this senseless crime. No one should ever have to endure what happened. Now, Chandler will have a life long time to get his degree, have free food and place to sleep as well as no bills or major decisions we have to make in an average life time. For Mitchell, so sorry you no longer have your mom and dad. You have everything now and nothing in the end that really matters. You no longer have your brother due to decisions he made. I pray you take the family home and dedicate it to an organization to keep others safe and spend time at the camp remembering good memories. Just lead your life Mitchell with you head high. For Cat, this will be a hard memory to deal with in your future. Consider your life fortunate and you are alive. Just think that you don't have to turn around one day and say, "Who the HeLL did I marry?"; watch for the red flags and we have to do in our lives. Live your life Cat and feel blessed for life.

Prosecutor gentleman spoke and questioned extremely exceptional!!!!

The thing that gets me...is that this dude could have literally just said "Okay, mom, dad...you got me. I'm not going to work at SpaceX... I've just been playing Mortal Kombat. Caught me red handed." ...and they would've yelled at him and gave him some money for an Armani interview suit and some Gucci hard bottoms for good measure. But he killed them for what... Because he was embarrassed?? Just dumb 🙄

This was one of the best Prosecution I have ever witnessed, from opening statements, to delivery of evidence and credible witnesses, right down to closing and rebuttal arguments, I see exactly why it took the jury 2hrs for a verdict. There was so much overwhelming evidence of guilt. RIP Bart and Krista, you didn't deserve this😔😔🙏🙏🙏🙏

I feel for the remaining family. I can’t imagine finding out the grandchild that I love has killed butchered, burned and threw away my child. And the poor girlfriend, her Mom and Moms friend, lives are changed forever. Also their beautiful, peaceful property will also be marred by this selfish, worthless piece of sh__?

Nice to hear a judge with such wonderful diction.

I really enjoyed watching the trial on this channel. I found the commentary helpful. Also, I found that the defence attorneys had no connection with the defendant. Usually they speak, look at each other etc but there was nothing.

Dude really thought he could get away with it. Enjoy the rest of ur life in prison.

So much respect to the judge and prosecutors. Justice is served.

And his parents would still have loved him. Shame on kids who don’t understand that your parents only want you to succeed and have a happy life. RIP Krista and Bart.

This defense was laughable and completely unprofessional. Cursing in the closing statement, texting while the judge reads the verdict, accusing the jury of researching the case and lying about it? Wonder if they’ve ever won a case in their entire career…

I feel for his brother. He lost his entire family.

Good job judge, jury, officers, detectives and prosecution!!!! Well done !

My heart hurts for Mitchell but I hope this verdict brings him something. I send him love and light through this darkness he’s going through. RIP Bart and Krista.

This Prosecutor is amazing, such concern for the family!!!

Wow, Chandler never NOT once lower his head during the trial, no apparent emotion , always seated straight… no remorse. Very scary. RIP Bart & Krista 😔🕊🙏🏾

Thankful for this verdict. The defendant cannot hurt anyone else. The judge was outstanding.

Thank you channel 3000

Kudos to Channel 3000 for their extensive coverage of this trial, their honest real time coverage of this trial and James' daily recaps of what happened in each broadcast. You did a great job and should cover more trials.

“What an entangled web we weave when at first we deceive” Wow. His life is over and he going away forever. I just hope he doesn’t get a new trial due to a technicality based on his horrible defense.

Prayers for the brother. I hope he had a supportive girlfriend and friends around him. May God bless him and may he find healing as he goes forward with his life.

The Judge is outstanding wow I am blessed to have listened to such a Gentleman

excellent coverage of this you did channel 3000, kudos!

This is so heartbreaking, so sad for the family and friends.

So glad that justice has been served. Thank you to the prosecution and all witnesses and to the jurors coming to a quick verdict.

Great Channel!!!!!!!!! Thank you also for sharing your stream with analysts.

With the mountain of evidence against him, it would have been unlikely, and a travesty, that he would walk free. Excellent job by both the judge and the prosecution.

Completely AGREE with the verdict!! Great trial coverage! I would like to give a standing ovation to JUDGE JOHN D. HYLAND! Hands down the BEST judge I have EVER seen run a courtroom!! Thank you for showing everyone respect, for speaking clearly and creating a calm environment. I’m so impressed & hope his peers set their goals to reflect Judge Hyland! May the Halderson’s loved ones receive the privacy they need at this time ~ ❤️🙏🏻

This is so heartbreaking. His mom was being a good mom until the end. Stopping after work to get her son sodas. Just to walk in to her home and be murdered. Yes I’m sure they would have been furious about all the lies but a parents love is unconditional and they could have all moved past it. His decision not to tell the truth has destroyed so many lives and that can never be fixed or moved past. As an only child and losing both of my parents in the past 2 years this angers me so badly. I would give anything to have them back. He took the 2 people who loved him most in this world.

Thank you,James, for your excellent coverage. You were fantastic!

I advocate for heart rate monitors on the defendant when the verdict is read, especially in cases like this.
